Chapter 54 The Lord of the State Passes Away
"Have you found the treasure?" Qin Lang looked at the all-black stone, and his heart secretly rejoiced. Anyway, those beast crystals didn't cost him any effort, if he could really exchange them for a treasure, then he would have made a huge profit.
"However, my mind cannot enter the probe, what can I do to figure this thing out?" Qin Guang picked up the stone and fiddled with it left and right, at the same time, the yuanqi in his body was also stirring.
"Hiss, I wonder if it's possible to inject yuanqi into it?" Qin Ling muttered to herself.
With a try-it-out mentality, Qin Lang activated the golden yuan energy in his body and injected a strand of yuan energy into the black stone. As the yuan energy was injected, Qin Lang clearly felt that the thin membrane that had been blocking his heart and soul was lifted layer by layer like a woman's veil, and finally, the black color disappeared, and the entire stone turned into a transparent jade stone.
"What's going on here?" Qin Lin looked at this strange phenomenon, stunned for a moment, and continued to urge the yuanqi in his body, continuing to inject yuanqi into it.
The stone changed once again, becoming even more crystalline while absorbing all of the primordial energy that Qin Lin had poured into it, like a bottomless abyss.
In the end, the stone had transformed into a completely transparent crystal, and when held in one's hand, it was like holding a giant drop of water.
"What the hell is this?" Qin Lang was completely bewildered, this thing had exceeded Qin Lang's cognitive range, although not as bizarre as his experience at the bottom of that lake, it still left Qin Lang baffled.
Qin Huan threw the now transparent stone onto the bed, and stood up himself, with his hands clasped in front of his chest, lowering his head to stare at the stone. Qin Huan suddenly remembered the jade token that Mo Yan had given him earlier, which contained the martial arts secrets of "Mountain Terrain Divine Fist".
"Is there a martial arts secret manual engraved in this transparent stone too? It would be great if that's the case." Qin Lang's mind wandered for a moment.
The heavenly soldiers had a day of rest every week, and for the heavenly soldiers who had been cooped up in the military camp for a whole week, it was precious. However, Qin Heng spent an entire day cooped up in his tent. Until nightfall, the heavenly soldiers returned one after another, while Qin Heng walked out of his tent with nothing to show for it after scratching his ears and cheeks all day.
"Oh no, I haven't eaten all day, I'm starving to death!" Qin Lang rubbed his almost flat stomach, only to realize that he hadn't had a single drop of water today.
"Hey, while the barracks are not closed yet, I'd better hurry up and get some food." Qin ran out of the barracks in a flash, and a few minutes later, he came back carrying a small package.
At night, Qin Huan studied the transparent crystal again for a while, but still couldn't understand it and could only put it down temporarily without thinking about it anymore.
No words were exchanged that night, and early the next morning, Qin Lang was still the first to arrive at the training grounds. He didn't act as if he was in charge, instead following the veteran soldiers through each exercise.
After the collective training was over, Qin Lang was still alone, continuing his own training. Qin Lang knew that he was still far from those old soldiers, and he could only narrow the distance by paying more heart and sweat.
At night, Qin Lang sat in his own tent, carefully absorbing the heaven and earth's original energy. There were many masters with a refined spirit realm in the army, so it was better to be careful. As Qin Lang absorbed the heaven and earth's original energy, he could clearly feel that the golden original energy within his body was becoming increasingly dense.
In this way, Qin Lang spent a monotonous and dull month in the army. During this month, Qin Lang relied on his own efforts to stand firm in the army.
Those in the team who were once dissatisfied with themselves are now one by one convinced of Qin Lang's abilities, because Gu Feng had challenged Qin Lang in training under the name of sparring. Gu Feng, who thought he had the upper hand, was defeated by Qin Lang with overwhelming momentum. Until the moment he was knocked to the ground by Qin Lang, he still couldn't understand why his perfectly rounded Body Tempering stage self would lose to Qin Lang, who was only in the early stages of Body Tempering.
In this way, Qin Lang continued to temper himself in the military, while Mo Yan became more and more speechless towards Qin Lang, because she found that every time she saw Qin Lang, his aura was slightly stronger than the last time they met. At this rate, it would be far from breaking through the small success of the Refining Body Period.
Two months later, on a night, Mo Gu Yun arrived at the military camp. However, his arrival did not stir up anyone, and even Mo Yan was completely unaware of it.
Mo Gu Yun quietly arrived at Qin Lang's tent. He also sensed that the primordial energy between heaven and earth was slowly gathering towards Qin Lang's tent, and all the gathered primordial energy was being absorbed by Qin Lang and transformed into his own use. Mo Gu Yun also deliberately urged his heart to try to absorb the primordial energy here, but the primordial energy that he usually easily absorbed now seemed to have a master, making it extremely difficult for him to absorb.
"This little monster." Mo Gu Yun couldn't help but exclaim.
At this moment, Qin Lang's heart was directed towards the sky, sensing the primordial energy of heaven and earth. His perception had become extremely acute, and Mo Du's soft sigh outside the tent was contained within the primordial energy, forming a clear sound wave that was clearly sensed by Qin Lang.
"County Master, since you've come, please come in and sit down. I hope County Master won't mind the messiness of my place." Qin Huan said, sticking his head out from the tent and looking at Mo Gouyun.
"Haha, I'm so embarrassed, this has been discovered." Mo Gu Yun was discovered, but he didn't show any embarrassment, instead he walked calmly into Qin Cang's tent.
He walked in and Mo Gu Yun, without any hesitation, sat down on Qin Cang's bed. Seeing Mo Gu Yun so unpretentious, Qin Cang's tension also dissipated a bit. Mo Gu Yun always gave Qin Cang a kind of intimacy, as if he were one of Qin Cang's elders.
"Are you getting used to life in the army?" Mo Gu Yun asked with a smile as he looked at Qin Cang.
"Hmm, although it's different from what I imagined, I still quite like this kind of life." Qin Lang smiled and sat down on the spot.
"Your affairs, Mo Yan has told me all about them. I came today just to take a look, but I didn't expect that this one glance would surprise me so much. I didn't think your strength had increased so quickly." Mo Gu Yun sensed Qin Cang's aura and discovered that his aura was already extremely thick, almost approaching the level of a fully formed Refining Body stage cultivator. Thinking back to just a few months ago when Qin Cang was still only a Molding Body stage junior, Mo Gu Yun couldn't help but feel a thread of surprise.
"This is also thanks to the guidance of County Master and Mo Yan, that Qin Cang was able to achieve what he has today." What Qin Cang said was true. If it wasn't for Mo Gyun letting Qin Cang come to the military camp, Mo Yan wouldn't have told Qin Cang about the Heavenly Earth Origin Energy. Otherwise, Qin Cang would still be a Jianghu vagabond who only knew how to practice hard with his head down.
"All these are your own fortune, Mo Yan and I just happened to appear at that node." Mo Gu Yun said calmly, looking at Qin Cang.
"Is the young mistress of the county here in the middle of the night just to see Qin Lang?"
"Ah, yes, there's something else." Mo Gu Yun looked at Qin Liang and said: "The Lord has passed away!"
"What? The Lord of the State has passed away?" Qin Leng's butt shifted slightly as he said in shock.
"That's right, just yesterday, the news hasn't spread yet." Mo Gu Yun got up from bed and walked to the entrance of the tent, with his back facing Qin Cang.
Qin Lang also got up from the ground. The master of Qinghai State actually passed away, and this news was too shocking.
"That young master of the county told Qin Guang such a shocking message, and what does he want Qin Guang to do?" After being shocked, Qin Guang also quickly calmed down. He knew that Mo Gu Yun's visit in the middle of the night wouldn't be just to tell him this news.
"That's right, I came to find you, indeed there is another matter." Mo Gu Yun looked at Qin Cang with a face of approval.
Finally getting to the point, Qin Huan was also shocked. He knew that being able to make the Lonely Cloud County Master come find him personally was absolutely not a simple matter.
"The emperor suddenly passed away, and the capital is now in a state of chaos. His Highness the prince has summoned the nine provincial governors to come to the capital for an emergency meeting, and I will set out tomorrow. But somehow, I have a feeling that a storm is brewing."
"A country cannot be without a ruler for even one day, some things are unavoidable." Qin Lang nodded and said.
"Tomorrow I set out for the capital, and I want you to come with me." Mo Gu Yun said.
Mo Gu Yun's words left Qin Guang somewhat perplexed, staring blankly at Mo Gu Yun, asking: "Your Highness, the Prince has summoned you to discuss important matters, I wonder why he brought me along?"
"This matter is of great importance, and I don't know when I'll be able to return once I leave. You have a special physical condition, and leaving you alone here makes me uneasy." Mo Gu Yun said.
"This, I'm afraid Commander Mo Yan won't agree to?" Qin Cang actually quite wanted to follow Mo Gu Yun together, for several months staying in the military camp Qin Cang was already a bit stifled, this time the national capital meeting, those who went must be some big shots, Qin Cang also wanted to follow and see the world. It's just that thinking of the fierce Mo Yan, Qin Cang felt a bit apprehensive.
"It's alright, Yan'er will also be going with me this time." Mo Gu Yun gave Qin Lang a reassurance.
"That's great!" Qin Lang said with a smile. Qin Lang knew that if he stayed in the military camp all the time, it would be difficult to achieve anything big, and he would never be content with this, so he must go out and make a name for himself.
"I won't just be a mere eighth-grade heavenly soldier." Qin Lang said quietly in his heart.
Seeing Qin Lang nod in agreement, Mo Gu Yun also nodded. Only he himself knew that the reason why he wanted to bring Mo Yan and Qin Lang with him was because he had sensed a hint of crisis. The sky might change, and when they returned, it was uncertain whether the Lonely Cloud County would still be called the Lonely Cloud County. The most important people must be brought along.
